1/4:

Dear Lord,

If I seemed distracted at church today, it had everything to do with the awesome little blessing you gave us.

As you’re WELL-AWARE, I spent my time chasing Iron Will as he:

- body tackled that unsuspecting little girl;

- ripped off all those flower petals;

2/4:

- attempted to commandeer the golf cart used to transport the mobility-impaired;

- pulled over a display stand;

- coated the window with milk from his bottle;

- practiced throwing EVERY object not nailed down;

3/4:

- and, for his finale, as I was attempting to simultaneously control him with one hand AND answer Nature’s call, he threw his matchbox car in the toilet initiating a chain of events I’m not ready to discuss in detail or without hyperventilating.

Besides, you know my heart.

4/4:

And his.

And you know I need him more than he needs me.

So now, as we blow bubbles, I just wanted to say “Thank you!” for the gift of Iron Will’s energetic, exploratory, unrelenting zeal for life.

Because it makes MY life all the better.

Amen.
